Building VLC on a Mac

[tryvlcc]

I am following the instructions on how to build VLC media player here https://wiki.videolan.org/VLC_Source_co ... ource_tree

I am building VLC on a Mac. After the build runs the build directory is still empty.

Shouldn't the build directory contain an executable that can be run to start the media player? Also, does the VLC code tree contain the installation files for ninja and protobuf?

to clarify I build it using the ../extras/package/macosx/build.sh -c script. The script runs, I do not see any errors in the output logs, but then I do not see an executable created and the /build directory is empty.

what is the expected output of the script?

Hi @tryvlcc

Did you ever have any luck on this? I am seeing the same exact thing. I can't find the compiled binary anywhere in the tree, and my build folder is empty.
